Save Your Wine Corks for Your Fruits Bowl

If you keep a fresh fruit bowl in your house, there’s something you might want to consider adding to it…wine corks! Apparently the corks are a natural repellent to keep fruits clear of bugs. Fruit flies are attracted to sugar and moisture but the cork helps to absorb it. They also have a fragrance that the flies dislike. So, next time you open a bottle and need to ward off those pesky insects, save your cork. A little wine staining on them won’t hurt anything either.
